The Dark Is Rising Sequence: Silver on the Tree; The Grey King; Greenwitch; The Dark Is Rising; and Over Sea, Under Stone

The Dark is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper I haven't seen the movie and I don't intend to because this series (despite its problematic reliance on a racist dark is bad, light is good central image) was incredibly important to me as a kid. I'd re-read the whole series every year. I preferred it to the Narnia series. I re-read it a few years ago and it's still powerful. Much of it is set in Wales! There's an emo boy protagonist! It has to do with King Arthur! That's all I'm saying.
